Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s speeches usually hit his pet themes - the border, the economy, crime - but I’ve never heard him mention Biden in the first 25 minutes of a rally as often as he has just mentioned Harris. He is going full throttle against her, describing her as “a radical crazy person” who is “worse than [progressive left wing Senator] Bernie Sanders” and claiming (falsely) that she wants to confiscate guns and “take away your Second Amendment”. It’s an insight into how the next few months are likely to play out before voters head to the polls on November 5.
“If you want socialist health care, nation-wrecking inflation, the death of American energy, and a lyin’ radical left liberal San Francisco extremist as your commander in chief, then Kamala Harris is your candidate ,” Trump told his fans in North Carolina.

Trump won North Carolina by a tiny 1.4 per cent in 2020, but Republicans fear the Dems could flip it this year, so they’ve embarked on a strategy called ‘Operation Domino’ to help Trump retain the state. Kamala Harris and Donald Trump Credit: AP While.
